How to wear a goddess statue

Rotas walked along the reception hall of the City Lord's Mansion, all the way to the room at the end of the corridor.

This is a study room. Scrolls and official documents are neatly piled up on one side of the long table. It is probably the place where the city lord of Elleira handles government affairs on weekdays.

However, at this time, the city lord probably didn't have the heart to take care of those official documents. He sat behind the desk, rubbed his temples with his fingers, and looked a little tired.

Luca stood opposite him, with the usual stubbornness on his face.

Rhodes hid aside, listening to the conversation between the father and son.

"...This time you are following His Highness's escort caravan to carry out a military order. I will not pursue it. When the caravan arrives in Acht, you will come back immediately."

Luketa said so.

Luca: "Why? I am His Highness's personal guard now, where is His Highness, where am I?"

City Lord: "Do you still want to follow the princess?"

"What's wrong?" Luca was really wondering, "Before I succeed you as the lord of the city, I can do whatever I want according to my inner voice, as long as it doesn't violate the law and morality, as you promised."

The city lord said angrily: "The premise is that you don't hand over your loyalty! As the guardians of Eluleila, the only ones who can give us our allegiance are the current and future kings. What kind of nerve did you get wrong, and you ran to the border to find Princess?"

"But Her Royal Highness is the future king!"

Luca is confident.

Hearing this, Luketa's complexion suddenly changed. He got up immediately, walked to the door and window to check if there was anyone around, then closed the window and drew the curtain, and reprimanded in a low voice: "What nonsense, you are crazy, at least I also thought about not causing trouble to the princess—"

Luca is very confident: "I checked before coming here, there is no one around, don't worry."

The city lord took a deep breath and put his arm under the table, probably because he was afraid of hitting his own son to death in a fit of anger.

Rhodes: "..."

She almost thought she was watching a family drama called "The Foolish Son and His Old Father".

The father and son were silent for a moment, as if they were soothing their emotions, and finally the city lord spoke again: "If you want to follow the princess, you must at least give me a reason."

Luca immediately said: "Well, it's all thanks to your teaching."

The city lord's blood pressure is on the rise again: "When did I teach you this!"

"Did you forget?" Luka was slightly confused, as if he didn't understand how his father would forget such an important thing, but—"It's okay, I remember every word clearly, and I will repeat it to you later."

Under the watchful eyes of gods and mortals, Luca imitated his father's tone in his childhood memory, and said seriously:

"The man destined to write history..."

Luketa listened with a cold expression on his face, but his memory has been pulled back to a few years ago.

At that time, he had just received the news of the late king's death, and he was sitting alone in the study drinking. He had always restrained himself, so even though he was extremely sad, he did not let himself get drunk.

Worried about him, his wife sent Luca to deliver hot tea to relieve the hangover.

Through his drunkenness, he said to his son:

"The king I followed has left, but Luca, you still have a chance..."

"My son, keep my words in mind, you must know that there are very few people who are destined to write history, as long as you see him, you can feel it, and then all you have to do is follow him to the death and become his sword and shield."

"—So your name will also be engraved in the history he created!"

Memories flooded in. Luketa closed his eyes and suddenly felt powerless. He had long forgotten what kind of mood he had when he said such words.

But Luca engraved this passage in his heart.

"I admit that I said this, but she is a princess." Luketa said slowly, "Not Her Majesty Horst, nor the Crown Prince, do you understand what I mean, Luca?"

Luca opened his eyes wide: "You didn't say you couldn't be a princess."

He thought about it for a while, and said solemnly: "Father, you must not understand how powerful Her Highness is, as long as you compete with Her Highness, you will know. Your Highness is someone who can write history."

"How can force represent everything..." Luketa sighed, suddenly thought of something, and his face turned ugly, "How do you know? Could it be that you have made such a disrespectful move as confronting His Highness?"

The two stared at each other, and Luca took a step back: "Cough."

Luketa gave him a kind smile.

The next moment, Luca was chased by the city lord and escaped from the study, his lingering voice echoed in the room:

"It's fine if you don't want to. Anyway, Her Royal Highness is training and sparring every day. You can find some time to take a look, and you'll understand!"

Luketa scolded angrily: "Bastard! Damn! You bastard who doesn't know how to behave!!"

"Father, etiquette, etiquette—"

Luo Dasi floated alone in the room, watching the father and son fleeing, suddenly felt that she should be holding something in her hand at the moment, such as melon seeds, such as tea.

But from this point of view, the Lord of Elleira himself may not be as rigid as outsiders think. He is still full of desire to follow the Lord, but he never reveals it easily.

After a while, the city lord came back from the door.

Luketa was in his prime, but he looked older than his actual age. The lines on his forehead and deep nasolabial folds unscrupulously showed the passage of time. He leaned on the high-back chair with his eyes closed, looking tired.

Just when Rhodes thought he was going to fall asleep like this, and was thinking of going to try to see if he could fall asleep, the city lord suddenly said to himself:

"It can't go on like this. What about the direct lineage of the royal family? How many people will stand on the side of the princess when the day comes when the intention is revealed?"

"Only those who survived have the qualifications to write history. My son, how can I let your name be engraved on the record of history as a treasonous criminal..."

"Benevolent Goddess of the Ilu River, please set your sights on Luca, and let him stop doing stupid things!"

In fact, the benevolent Rhodes is beside the Santo, and is thinking about how to pull the Santo to "do stupid things".

As the night was dark, Luketa finished half of the official documents piled on the table by the candle lamp, and then hurriedly fell asleep on the bed used for temporary rest behind the study.

Although he already had a premonition, Rhodes still made an attempt to enter the dream, but sure enough, he failed.

Luketa believes in the river goddess, but his belief is not so pious that the gods can dream.

Rhodes didn't find it strange. After all, even in the Cadella Temple back then, there were only a few people who were truly pious to the point of innocence. How could they expect the city lords outside the priesthood to have enough faith?

It was already very late when Luodas left the city lord's mansion, she didn't immediately return to the temporary residence of the caravan, but let herself float above the empty streets.

The fixed lighting on both sides of the road is quietly burning with torches, and the firelight falls into the clear blue eyes of the gods.

In the mythology of the Solan people, Nierd, the god of wisdom and knowledge, is in charge of the sun and the master of Mars, because people think that thought is a group of never-ending fireworks. From a certain point of view, this is a very vivid metaphor .

Rhodes was thinking, if she can still enter the dream of the city lord this time, should Luketa be Eleuil's helper like she once told the priestess?

For the princess, is this kind of "help" really reliable?

In fact, if you just can't sleep, there are other ways to let the city lord know which side the gods are on.

Rhodes can change back to the appearance of a god at any time, appearing in front of the city lord with silver hair, blue eyes, and a cloak. It is more real and effective than entering a dream, and he is not afraid that he will not believe it.

The problem is, that she can do this means that all gods can do it.

Amira, Suriel, Aditya, and even En who is the king of the gods, any god can come to the world or enter a dream to help any mortal they are optimistic about.

but.

The gods live high in the kingdom of God and are indifferent to the replacement of human kings. Is it true that the gods do not care about the fate of individual human beings, but only care about the development of the group as a whole?

However, thinking about the previous situation in the temple of the kingdom of God, where he couldn't even pass a word to the little princess, Rotas intuitively felt that this was not the only reason.

The most important thing……

Rhodes changed back to his avatar form in no one's place, brushed his black hair aside, and sighed silently.

If a god has divine right, then there must be divine responsibility.

The king holds the royal power and should also perform the royal duties.

Whether it is using faith to gain influence for someone, or relying on the power of gods to win people's hearts, it cannot be counted as "correct".

The moon gradually moved to the west, and just before dawn, Rhodes finally returned to his residence.

The oil lamp in the room was still dimly lit. Eleuil was sitting on the head of the bed with a book upside down on her knees. Her face was slightly turned to one side, she was breathing evenly, and she was sleeping quietly, obviously waiting for the gods When I came back, I fell into a dream unconsciously.

However, Eleuil has always been extremely vigilant, and as soon as Rhodes stepped into the room, she suddenly woke up.

The princess covered her lips with her hand and yawned lightly: "You are back."

Rhodes nodded: "I went to the City Lord's Mansion."

She briefly recounted the conversation between the city lord and his son. The princess listened carefully, her eyes were clear, and she didn't feel any sleepiness after waking up.

"It turns out that Luketa's attitude is like this. He is concerned about etiquette and is afraid that I will take his son to death." Aleuil nodded his chin and chuckled, "Old rules, if he wants to prove it, I will prove it to him, but If you really don’t want to believe it, Elleira City can only give up.”

"Give up?" Rhodes frowned.

"There are always some forces that I can't win over. The main city along the way can only be said to be easier than Acht, but if I really want to win over, I'm afraid more than half of them will just choose to wait and see." Eleuil shrugged and made a joke. "After all, I'm not a gold coin, and everyone won't like me."

Rhodes was silent.

Having said that, I always feel a little regretful that I can't help the princess even though I believe in my main city.

Aleuil tilted his head: "Why didn't you speak?"

Rhodes: "Maybe it's helpless, after all, this is Elorela."

Aleuil was stunned for a moment, understood the meaning of the words of the gods, and couldn't help laughing lowly.

"From the very beginning, I never wanted to get Luketa's approval through you... Rhodes, you have already helped me a lot, let me do the rest, okay?"

Rhodes sighed: "I'm afraid I can't help much with human affairs."

"No, no."

Facing Rhodes' gaze, Eleuil leaned over, put his lips against the ear of the god, and whispered: "Look at me, as long as you look at me. Nothing can give me more strength than your gaze."

The warm breath was blowing on the ear, and Luo Dasi subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but he stopped his movement abruptly. The girl's lips were inseparable, like falling flowers passing by the ear.

Rhodes lowered his eyes.

"I'll watch over you, Aileu."

The eyes of the gods will only stay on you alone.

The author has something to say:

In the setting, the gods can't directly interfere with the human world. Rhodes is a bit special, but they can't interfere too much.

Although the gods don't care about individuals, what if they think ants are fun?For example, the goddess of music who loves to listen to praise, Aditya who likes to play pranks, and many gods who were originally human, ahem.

If this is the case, behind every king of Solancia vying for power, there may be a battle of gods, each showing their supernatural powers, and whoever can win the attention of the supreme god will be the king... Hey, the world is the kingdom of gods on earth.

However, there are also cases where restrictions are lifted to avoid spoilers, so I won’t talk about it first.
